3 3 In a pretty and popular village close to the sailing waters of the Helford River. Conveniently situated and positioned a short walk to the heart of the village and its amenities. Exceedingly well stocked landscaped gardens with a fine selection of flowering trees, plants and shrubs. In an exceptional elevated south facing position taking in open views to the upper reaches of the Helford River and the countryside beyond. LOCATION The much sought after village of Gweek is situated within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and is found on the upper tidal reaches of the Helford River. A large boatyard offering the useful service of over wintering and repairing of boats sits at the head of the creek and although tidal, this creek leads down into the deeper water of the Helford River providing access to some wonderful sailing waters, sailing clubs and eventually into Falmouth Bay itself. The village is well catered for with local amenities including a popular village storage, the highly regarded Black Swan Inn and the tourist attraction of the Seal Sanctuary. The larger market town of Helston is about 3½ miles distant and was once a thriving port with ships sailing up the Loe River to load tin. However, during the 13 th Century a bar of shingle formed at the mouth of the river cutting off the access to the sea and creating a freshwater lake in the process known as Loe Pool which is, itself, surrounded by National Trust Walks. Helston is still a thriving town with many impressive period buildings around its streets, a full range of schooling, a sports centre and several supermarkets including Sainsbury s, Tesco s and Aldi. Gweek has always enjoyed a very active community based life with many organisations flourishing despite its small population. It is a busy community but close by you have the highly desirable and coveted peace and tranquillity of the tidal river with its ancient oak woods rising from the water s edge. The Helford River area of south Cornwall requires little introduction as one of the foremost locations in the county and is particularly favoured for its safe sailing waters, not only in the Helford River itself but also Falmouth Bay and the nearby Fal Estuary. Gweek is conveniently situated between Falmouth and Helston with Truro being half an hour s drive away with a mainline station on the Penzance to London Paddington line. Falmouth is Cornwall s largest port town and has the widest array of sailing facilities, along with many local and national retailers, the Events Square and the National Maritime Museum.
